By Telecraph to the Post-Dispatch, New Vonk. July 2.— Antonio Barrachina is a prisoner in Ludlow street jail. The Spanish Government has asked for bis extradition and he is awniting examination before United States Com- missioner Osborne, who will decide whether or not the application snall be granted. The nominal charge on which he was arrested, and has been heid since June 9, is for alleged malfeasance in office while a notary holding a commission from the Spanish crown. It is claimed that the real object for which the extradition is asked is that Barrachina may be punished for political offences. Allthough stil a young man, Barrachina bas hed a remarkable career. A onailve of the eit of Alimente, Spain, he was a doctor of laws and doctor of philosophy be- fore he was 21 ears of age. Several years later he occupied one of the most responsible positions under the crown in the chief city of the important 8 of Murcia, It would appear that before © was 80 years old he had obtained a national rep- utationasan ultra Republican leader and orator, and, moreover, that he paid the penalty for this prominence by serving two terms at hard labor as a political prisoner. In each case he was released or amnestied, apparently because the Government could mace no Case Against him. On June 22, 1871, wis hoy of 18 or 19, Barra- china was arrested by, fof the Royal Prosecu- tor, charged with delivered a speech in Va- lencia in which he ssed offensive expressions concerning the? Amadeo of Savoy. son of Victor Emanus was then the relguing mos arch. Barrac: aga student at the University of Valence a. He deputized by the Republican Committee at the Spanish capital to participate with other speakers in a mass méeting held in the Plaza de Toros, the principal public square of tne city . The young orator wok occasion to declare that the reign of Louis XIV. was tne culmination of the kingiy idea, and the time was fast approaching when the last of those who pretended to rule by “divine right“ would oppress the people. On the conclusion of bis Speech be Was arrested and thrown into the tower of berrancs, a prison noted for its terrors. Previous to this he bad published several articles in the Mad- rid newspapers, Ei Democrata and Ei Impar vm, Cx pressing ULTRA ANTI-MONARCHICAL IDEAS. After lying in prison for {tour months he was in- dicied asd brought to trial, He was acquitted ia October, 1571. He said yesterday: “From this time I was continu- ally subjected to great hardships. Watebed and foliowed by spies, treated as a trailor; my life wos made miserable. Ali manber of obstacies were thrown in the way of my scholas je progress. Yet despite tunis, after pursuing irreguiar studies at the University of Valencia, I succeeded im graduating at the University of Madrid. ‘ihat most iilustrious and post excellent body,’ as the faculty termed its f. was compelied to confer upon me, in September, 1873, the dignity of Doctor of Laws, both of civil and canon.

Young Dr. Barra- china was selected by the Republican Committee to defend these men of his native province. Dur- ing their incarceration P. M. Sagasta, Minister of the Interior, had, in 1874, promuigated an edict for- bidding the Inter nat nal Society of Worsisgmen to exist, The accused incendiaries, who were memvers of this association, were heid to be amenable to the law thus framed. After ibe alleged offense bad been com- nutted, they vere tried on a charge practically amounting to treason, The trial was begun at Alroy, but tae case was taken up to the supe ior court of the prov ace, and afterwards transferred o Madrid, Where it was heard before the bupreme Tribunal. Barrachina held that no offence sad been cotomitted under the indictment, as the iaw under wiucn they were tried was an at.rivute of tae legisiative department, and not operative on mere promulgation by a member of the Administration. The accused were all acquitted and Barrachina was arrested, charged. by the Government with bemg the chief of the revolutionists Spa n.

Dr. Buck, of Braddock, Pa., on Trial for Highway Kobbery,. Pirresune, FA., July 2.--The trial of Dr. Buck, a prac:icing physician of Braddock, was commenced yesterday, on a charge of being an accessory to the robbery of Frederick Alpert, an insurance agent, who was waylaid and robbed of $600 near Braddock, by what was known as the Gordon gang. Gordon, Geary and Crusan, who were members of the gang, pleaded guilty to the charge, and having been convicted of other robberies were sentenced to the penitentiary, Gordon for 50 years, and Geary and Crusan twenty years each. Dr. Buck is a tall, well-dressed man, and the owner of six houses. Alpert testified that he went to Brad- dock to collect insurance money and stopped to see Dr. Buck. After supper they left the Doctor's office and started up the road. At a point immediately in front of the house of John Gordon, who was afterwards convicted of the robbery, Dr. Buck excused him- self and went into Gordon's house. After a while he came out and went up the hill with Aipert as far as Mr Pierce's house. where Dr. Buck told him there was a man named Kinsey, on the opposite side of the river. bo wished to take out pelicy of insurance on bis life. and sugyerted that Alpert go over and see about it. Alpert told the doctor he had too much money with him and thought it would be dangerous. Bel pressed the matter, however, and A pert consented. When they saw Kinney the latter said that he never had any in- tention of taking out a policy,and they started to return through A LONELY PIECE OF Woops Dr. Buck now siarted on a run tor the ferry and Alpert caiied to him to wait for him, but the doctor kept on. A minute later two meu stepped in front of Alpert and one knocked him down and the other removed $500 from lis mside pocket and snatched off his gold waten. A)pert started toward the ferry and came across Dr. Buex lying on the ground and groaning. tle asked him if he nad also been robbed, Buc« said “yes.” They had taken two large pocket- boo«s from him, one containing $370 aud the other some small change, alihough he bad wid Alpert at his office and as he started for the river that he lacke 4) cents to make up the balance of a note which he paid Alpert. The doctor urged the latter to keep the matter quiet. The case was not concluded. JOHN MecCULLOUGH. The Demented Tragediau Visited by His Wite—A Marked Improvement.

The Progress of the Parliamentary Elections in England. _ mn Mr. Childers’ Budget—A Conservative News Agency—The Aylesford Case— The Cholera in Spain—Arrest of Sup- posed German Spies in France— Foreign News, Special Cabiegram tothe Post-Dispatch. Lonpon, July 2.—It is understood that if Lord Randolph Churchill is beaten at Woodstock to- morrow, one of the members for the city of Lon- don will resign in his favor and probably be ro- warded with a knighthood. The contest is growing very exciting. Many leading Conservatives and Liberals have gone down to help. VERY AMUSING. Much amusement is provoked by the announce- mentthat the Association of French Republican Journalists intends to take proceedings against Col, Smith Wolseley for, as alleged, setting a price on Oliver Pain's head. HERAT'S FORTIFICATIONS. Private letters from Herat represent the fortifica- tions there to be much stronger than supposed. The English officers have received a most cordial welcome from all classes. THE GORDON BOYS’ HOME. The London memorial fund, which now amounts to $90,000, is to be devoted to the establishment of an institution to be called “The Gordon Boys’ Home,“ to train boys for either military or civil life, according to their powers and inclinations. FEMALE GOVERNMENT EMPLOYES. It is a significent sign of the times that for 145 new female clerkships in the Post Office depart- ment no fewer than 2,500 women competed. A CONSERVATIVE NEWS AGENCY. The Conservative News Agency has been founded with a capital of half a million dollars to support and subsidize the conservative newspapers in the provinces and supply them with matter and illus- trations. Lord Randolph Churchill is president. THE AYLESFORD CASE. There is a rumor that after the decision of the Aylesford case, which is almost certain to be“ against Lady Aylesford, it is the intention of the Duke of Marlberough to marry her. It will be re- membered that Lady Aylesford left her husband's home in Vent in 1867, to accept the protection of Marlborough, then Marquis of Blanford. She pleaded her husband's intolerable conduct and Blanford's promise to marry her as soon as she was divorced. She had a child three years ago which, although Aylesford was not its father, she CALLED BY HIS SECOND TITLE. The courts found so much blame on both sides that neither was entitled toa divorce. The Ear! of Aylesford died on his ranch in Texas, in the United States of America, last January. Many personsin society here have thought that Marlborough would be mean enough to refuse to keep his promise to marry Lady Ayles- ford. The Duke of Marlborough isthe brother of Lord Randolph Churchill and is trying to defeat the latter’s re-election. THE ROYAL SANITARY COMMISSION. Lonpon, July 2.—It is announced that the Marquis of Salisbury will very soon introduce in the House of Lords abill embodying the chief recommenda- tions of the Royal Commission, appointed to inquire into the sanitary condition of the homes of the poor, and toreport upon the best means of housing them, THE BUDGET. Loxpox, July 2.—The Standard. in an editorial, says that Mr. Childers’ budget proposals as far as they received the sanction of Parliament, will be left undisturbed, but that provision for the remain- der of the deficit depends upon the attitude of the Liberals. The Daily Telegraph says that the Rothschilds will make further advances, pending the settlement of the Egyptian financial question. A BARK'S ROUGH TRIP. The American bark Edwin Reed, Captain Cate, at Queenstown from San Francisco, during the passage had the decks swept, the cabin flooded, and two boats and a portion of the bulwarks stove. She also shifted her cargo. FOR POLITICAL PURPOSES. The prospectus of a Conservative news agency, (limited) has beenissued. Lord Randolph Churchill is named asthe chairman of the company. The capital is fixed at £100,000. The purpose of this news agency is to provide the provinces with cheap Conservative newspapers and to prepare voters for the general election. According to the prospectus, it is proposed to issue cartoons and caricatures and to publish literary matter of an attractive character on cheap terms and on the co-operative principle. The scheme has the support of leading Conservatives. Articles bearing the signatures of the Cabinet Ministers and others are promised the newspapers. A TORPEDO SERVICE. Ata public meeting held in this city this after- noon and presided over by Lord Cowper, it was re- solved to raise a fund for the establishment and maintenance of a torpedo service for the coast de- fense of England. THE WOLVERHAMPTON WORKMEN. The workmen of Wolverhampton, in their letter to the Prime Minister, complained that they were in a starving condition. In his reply, Lord Salis bury expresses grief at the sufferings of the work- ing classes, and promises that the new Government will carefully consider the whole question of the prevalent depression of trade throughout Great Britain, and take such measures for relief as shal! be found most advisable. CONSIDERING THE TRADE DEPRESSION. The Marquis of Salisbury, the Prime Minister, replying to a letter which he received from the unemployed workmen of Wolverhampton, says; “The Cabinet is considering the whole question of trade depression.“ CONSOLS. Consols opened at 9911-16 for both money and the account. 4p, u.—Consols closed at 99 1-16 for money, and 9934 for the account. WANTS A SOVEREIGN ASSEMBLY.

Lizzie Steepleton was a school teacher add the daughter of Albert Steepleton, a Gibon farmer. Little is known of Southerland’s antecedents. He came from Jackson, Ohio, a few years ago and secured employment ina creamery at London Mills, Fulton County, Nl. It is rumored that he had married a girl in Ohio, whom he had seduced, and had been seekipg a diyorce from her at the time of the suicide of Miss Steepleton, which is said to have been caused by a postponement of the marriage which was to take place on next Saturday Miss Steepleton and Southerland have been keeping company for about a year, and there probably hag been an undue inti- macy. between the two, which may have affected the young lady's mind, and, in a great measure, have caused her to take herown life. Miss Stee- pleton was 20 years of age and VERY HANDSOME IN APPEARANCE. On Tuesday she made the remark that she had enough arsenic to kill all the rats on the place, but nothing further was observed, and no suspicions were aroused. Yesterday morn- ing, however, she was discovered in the last agonies of death, and she died without revealing the cause of herrash act. Shortly afterward Southerland came into the house and was ordered out by Mr. Steepleton, who stated that Southerland was the cause of his daughter's death. He immediately went to a neighbor's house and BORROWED A GUN. He was found soon after near a creek southwest of Gibon with the top of his head blown off. The load from the gun took effect just below the right eye, and part of the head was found ina tree several teet from the ground. Both parties were well con- nected, Miss Stepleeton's father being a well- to-do farmer, and Southerland's father being cashier of a bank at Jackson, Ohio. The unfertunate couple were buried this morning. KELLAR GETS THERE. Secretary Manning Appoints the Ohio Man toa Clerkship. Wasarneron, D. C., July 2.—Secretary Manning earned the facts in the Kellar case only this morn- ing. He at once sent for Kellar, appointed him to a clerkship and set him at work, Kellaris the Ohio man, who, having been certified by the Civil Service Commission, was refused his appointment by First Au titor Chenow ith. on the ground that he was dis- tastefui to Congressman Warner and other Demo- crats in his home district. Mr. Owen Kellar of Caldwell, Ohio, who was cer- tified by the Civil Service Commission for sppoint- mont to a clerkship in the First Anditor’s office, was rejected by First Auditor Chenowith on the ground that he was a Republican and was distasteful to Congressman Warner and other Democrats of his neighborhood, has this morning been appointed by order Secretary Manning tothe place for which he was certified. Mr. Kellar yesterday brouzht tiw facts. in the case to the attention of the Civil Service Commis- sion by whom they were last evenibg laid before the President. The cotmmissiénérs said the refusal to app int Kellar appeared to be a violation of Rule VIII, which forbids any discrimi- nation by the appointing officer on political grounds, and they farther rep- resent that the reception of the recommendations by the Auditor from Congressman Warren that Kellar be not appointed, appeared to be in plain violation of the tenth section of the civil service act. which says that no recommendations shall be received from any member of the House of Representatives, except as to the character of the applicant, by any person concerned in making any examination or appointment under the act. Under this provision the commissioners held that the auditor had no right to _ receive any such recommendation from a member of Congress. Early this morning as the commission was further considering the + with a view to its more formal presentation to the President, the following letter was received from the Secretary of the Treasury: “TREASURY DEPARTMENT, OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WasnHineton, D.

Barnum's Hotel, on Second and Walnut streets, has been in pretty constant hot water,for several | years past over the difficulties of the owners with the tenants. Capt. L. A. Pratt, the present propri- etor, took it about two years ago, after it had passed a troublous period in the hands of two men who left in bad favor, and he in turn is having an unpleasant time of it, He has had no lease on the property, which delon to the Taylor estate, but has held it as monthly tenant. Not long ago he expressed his willingness to give it up, and a lease of the hotel was made to John R. Owings and Adam Scheringer, to date from July 1. Capt. Pratt was notified, but refused to give 5 the hotel on this date, He claims that he has expended money oa certain improve- ments which has not Leen refundea. The repre- sentatives of the Taylor estate claim, on the other hand, that he is behind on his rent more than enough to make up for this expenditure, if any has been made. Capt. Pratt holds the property, and it is probable that roceedings will have to be resorted to in er ooust him. The new proprietors are both well- known hotel men. Mr. Owings has been connected with the Laclede, the Hote! Barnum, and otker ho- tels in the city, and Mr. Scheringer is at present chief clerk atthe St. James. It is their intention to change the house into an European-plan hotel. A BUCKET SHOP CLOSED. Creditors Who Would Like to Find Mr. A J. Merriam. About two months ago a young man named A. J. Merriam rented a small office on the Exchange floor of the Chamber of Commerce building and pro- ceded to establish a diminutive bucket shop. The firm name on the door was Warner & Co., but noth- ing was ever seen of Warner and at is presumed the use of his name was simply ablind. One man represented himself as the agent of Everingham & Co, of Chi , to whom, he said, he reported all his deals. fis transactions were principally in puts and calls, but he did a very light business. On Saturday evening last Merriam disappesred, and since that time his office has been besieged by sev- eral small creditors, F. W. Rosenthal Co, heading the list with a bill for carpets and paper amounting to $55. Yesterday the carpet and furniture were removed bya second- hend dealer, who claimed to have bought them of Merriam. Rosenthal & Co. say that Merriam owes $30 for painting and $40 for carpenter work, His rent was paid to July 1, so the Chamber of Com- merce loses nothing. COLLECTOR STURGEON. The President in No Hurry to Appoint His Successor, By Telegrawh te the Poest-Dispaton. Wasuineton, D. C., July 2.—The Coramissioner of Internal Revenue said this afternoon that there was no likelihood of an immediate change in Col- lector Sturgeon's district. Thus far the President had not signified a desire to make a new appoint- ment, and the papers in _the case had not even been submitted him. There are a number of applications for this position on file at the Treasury department. but the President seems to be in no hurry to settle upon any one. The same is true of other Western collectors and some of the appl cants are getting weary. It is probable that no more appointments will he made in the Internal Revenue service for several weeks. at least not until the President gets ready to consider the Cases. AH LUNG AT LIBERTY. Evidence Which Was Too Conflicting for 5 the Grand Jury. Ah Lung, the Chinese high-binder, who has been in jail for sometime past, charged with attempting to bribe witnesses in the case of the seven Chinese who are accused of murdering Lou Johngon, was to-day discharged from custody. The habeas cor pus proceedings in this case were to have come up before the Court of Appeals to-day, but ia view of the discharge of the prisoner, no action in court was taken, Ah Lung resumed his old quarters at Chyo Gon's place on Market street, near Sixth. In Y ther wg ofthecase Circuit Attorney Clover said: “The evidence has become so contradictory that it wag no use to bring the case before the Grand Jury, and I made up my mind accordingly to let Ah Lung go.” The Dean Investigation. At the session of the Dean Investigation Commit- tee last night Dr. Jules Valle and Dr. Adelsberger testified. The former stated the quaiity of the food given the patients was often poor, but was general'y sufficient in quantity. He had known of patients being allowed to lie on the ground ina stretcher before being taken tothe proper ward. He also knew of three casesof diphtheria being contracted by the, patients being taken where others suffering from the disease had been. Few complaints about the tea and coffee furnished were made, and he did not know of Dr. Dean neglecting patients. Dr. Adelberger testified that last spring Dr. Dean neglected for two hours to examine a woman whe had been struck by a brick and paralyzed. Dr. Dean once stopped the giving of milk to the patients with solid diet. Once Dr. Dean waited eight days before responding to a request to examine a patient. The supplies were sometimes cut short. Dr. Dean often used before the coroner the histories of cases written out by assistants. The committee will continue the Investigation this evening. The Weather.

Governor Eaton has re- ceived the following telegram this morning from a oh man living near Durango: “The settlements the Mancos and Dolores are threatened by the Ute Indians, and the people are very much alarmed. Some of them are moving their families out for greater safety, and others, who are unable to move, are sleeping out in the sage brush for fear their houses will be burned and their families massacred. The citizens are not sufficiently armea, neither have they ammunition. Yesterday a detail guarding horses saw an Indian scout within two miles of the valley. The people have no confidence in the United States military. We demand State protection, arms and ammuni. tion. Iwas instructed by the citizens of Mancos to make this demand. [Signed] “M. T.

T., special, of July 2 says: “William Pinn Howland, who arrived“ last night from San Bernandino Ranche, gives the following account of the fight previously reported, between the whites and the Indians at Oputo: Captain Crawford, with the main body of troops and scouts, went directly toward the Torres Mountains, wifile Lieutenant Davis’ command passed around to the east end of the mountains, flanking theIndians. Davis surprised their camp, consisting of seventeen bucks and fourteen women and chil- dren. In the attack two bucks were killed and one wounded. The womenand children and one wounded Indian were made prisoners. The four- teen remaining bucks escaped into the mountains. It was found’ impossible to overtake Lieut. Davis sent Lieut. Henry with a detail of six men in charge of the prisoners and the mutinous Indian scouts to San Bernandino Ranche. At the same time he sent a courier to Fort Bowle, asking General Cook for reinforcements to meet Hanna at San Ber- nandino to relieve him. When Howland left San Bernandino yesternay, Hanna had not reached there, although he had been on the way six days. Lieut. McGrew who had been dispatched as a relief to Hanna, arrived at the ranch Monday. Scouts have been sent from McGrew's command to obtain news of Hanna. The be- lief exists that the fourteen bucks who escaped from the Oputa fight, seeing the prisoners leave the main command guarded by but six men, followed, ambushed and massacred them and rescued the prisoners.

To the reporter's startled Thquiry he went on to explain: I mean so far as space is con- cerned.

BEAR FODDER. All the Influences Favor the Short Side and the Markets Drop. Special by Telegraph from Piekering & Co., Chicago, to the Post-Dispatch. Cuicago, July 2.—The early feeling was stronger on wheat, many buying orders being then ou the market, but the offerings of long stuff were quite that was done weakness was the order of the day. by news that This weakness was increased seventy-two wheat cargoes had passed thé Dardanelles auring the week ended yesterday. This great quantity somewhat upset the theory of the bulis, that the crops of Southern Russia were lookiug so badly that ship- ments from there would be small for some time to come. From New York came news that their weakness was caused by heavy sell- ing of long wheat, and the closing cables were reported heavy. Our price went down a cent on ali this bear fodder, clesing steady at about the lowest price of the day. The large increase in the quantity of wheat on passage surprised many but if the Dardaneiles’ quantity above referred to is correct, next week's statement ought to show a still further increase. Crop neus continues to favor the bears. The quality seems every where to be good, aud the yield Aways a little better than June’s first estimate. @ Oats were steady early, but broke a haif-cent later under a falliug off of the cash demand and prospective large arrivals, finally closiug steady Corn was strongerearly, July selling up to 48, with an active inquiry for cash; later the market declined gc, altuouga charters were heavy and re- ceipts for to-merrow not excessive, Otaer deliv- eries followed for July, and tne whole market turn- ing on a shipping demand, the final close was easy at about the lowest price of the day. Receipts for to-morrow include 115 cars of wheat, 420 cars of corn and 122 cars of oats. Receipts of wheat to-day at western points were 322 cars. All interest in provisions was centered on report of stocks held here Juiy1.

THURSDAY, JULY 2, 1885. — — — Subscribers to the Post-Dispatom who contem- plate leaving the city during the summer will receive their paper as usual if they will leave the pew address at this office or give it to the carrier. — Tui tax-dodgers have an organ at last. The poor old Republican comes out openly in de- fence of the under assessment of railroads, and in abuse of those who try to correct it. Tun tax dodging railroad corporations of Missouri have enlisted the Republican to do their dirty work. For this service and for such service only the Republican is a success. Tx car-drivers’ strike in Chicago is a bigger thing than Mayor Harrison. The Mayor was compelled to beat a retreat, and the mob holds possession of the field. Chicago is a great city. 2— SenaTor Vest is reported as having said recently: The administration has given me all that I asked for.“ He now asks that T. T. CRITTENDEN be made postmaster at Kansas City. Mrxico is now enjoying the delights of a freight war between the railroads, with the | added feature that the Government proposes to take a hand in it. The war is between the Vera Cruz Road and the Mexican Central, and if the Government is wise it will let them fight it out. * THE natural order of affairs in street car cir- cles in Chicago has been reversed, and the drivers and conductors are giving orders to the superintendents. The citizens are siding with the mob, the Mayor is dodging bricks, beer kegs and other light and airy missiles, and the po- licemen are ferociously feeble in their resist- ance, All that is wanted is to have the strikers depose the Mayor, accept the allegiance of the police, put the superintendents and directors of the street car companies on as drivers and con- ductors, and the beginning of the anarchist mil- Jenium will be realized, — re se — Ir is not the fault of the Posr-Disparen that there is no graduated tax on incomes and no just equalization of assessments. It is not the fault of the Post-DispaToH, nor of any- body connected with it, that leasehold property held by a brewing company with big political influence is assessed to that company far below its true value, and far lower than other property belonging to the same estate is assessed. The citation of such cases only tends to sustain the charge of the Posr-Disr Aren that the property of rich and powerful corporations is assessed | lower than the property of individuals, and | that our equalization laws are grossly, if not willfully, violated by those whose duty it is to enforce them. — — Ir begins to look as if the Tory party really had resolved to appear in a grand Protean transformation scene, just to pacify and please Mr. PARNELL. The significant utterances of the Tory Premier’s brother-in-law in a recent | speech have been followed by a still more sig- nificant speech from a member of the new ad- ministration who is the leader and embo iiment of Orangeism. Lord ARTHUR WILLIAM HILL, M. F. for County Down and Comptroller of Accoun a for the Queen's household, has form- ally declared to his constituents that he is op- posed to the renewal of the Crimes Act and will support the land purchase bill which the Liberal Government proposed. The outcome of the Tory effortto crowd the English Rad- icals off their own platform will be awaited with lively interest by the friends of Ireland every where. — -¼-¼ THE members of the Commercial Club re- turning from Boston report that financial matters there are very dulland that railroad finances have received a black eye from the action of the Mexican Government in repudi- ating the subsidies. This would not be a loss to the Mexican Central Railroad if it would take advantage of the situation, and consent to accept bonds instead of the subsidy on condi- tion that the Government would make ade- quate concessions in return. A much heavier blow at railroad prosperity is indicated in the morning's news that the Government has for- bidden the Mexican Central to make special rates. The Mexican Central must either make special rates or let the Vera Cruz Road do the business, and, if the Government wishes, it can, of the company badly. It isa curious coinci- 4 Government should threaten the with ¥ penalties for Violations of a way that might have bankrupted it. The Mexican Central is receiving very bad treat- ment, which cannot but do harm to all foreign investment in Mexico. — —— Ir the Republican continues to labor under the delusion that it can defend the State Board of Equalization and weaken the position * * vation by pointing out cases in which the assessment favors corporations, we will help it to point out some startling cases of that kind. It is not impossible to designate cor poration property in Missouri which the State Board has permitted to be assessed at a capital valuation less than its net annual earnings as sworn to by its manager and principal stock- holder on the witness stand. Perhaps we can give the Republican the name of a member of the State Board of Equalization who is per- sonally cognizant of such cases, and who, if he were put on the witness stand, would have to swear that he knows of just such assessments of street-railroad property belonging to certain very warm and very influential political friends of his, We believe he could specify 4 certain case of street-railroad property in Kansas City notoriously salable for a million dollars cash, but which has been assessed right straight along at a valuation far below the sum of its net annual earnings. Does the Republican hold that such cases can be properly ignored by a public journal for a share of the pork?” — A TROUBLED ORGAN. The Republican this morning comes to the rescue of the railroad corporations in their struggle to avoid taxation, with the following tissue of lies fabricated in St. Louis and pub- lished as a special dispatch from Jefferson City: NEEDS EQUALIZING. A NEWSPAPER ASSESSED AT A RIDICULOUSLY LOW FIGURE, ACCORDING TO ITS OWN STATEMENT. Jurrerson Crry, Mo., July 1.— [Special. — Fol- lowing is an extract from a letter written by 8 well-known and responsibie party, which is now before the State Board of Equalization: “I see that the Pogr-Dispatom is fighting for a high assessment. I would like to give the Board some figures as to the value of the Post-DisparTou. I have conclusive evidence that the income of the Post-Dispaton last year was $100,000; at least so it says. and I suppose its statement is worthy of credit. This at 10 per cent. would be the interest on $1,000,000, yet this paper is not assessed at $20,000 or one-fifth of ite net income. “The Dillon estate is the owner of some vacant lots in St. Louis, which were desired for depot purposes. The property is assessed at $24,000. When it came to taking it for depot purposes they valued it at $250,000, and a board of com- missioners have .just awarded them $120,000, or five times its assessed value. “This is the way property is assessed in St. Louis. I only refer to that particular portion held by the Posr-Disraron or persons connected with it. I have no doubt the balance is assessed in about the same proportion. I am not gruabling at this, but it may be well to ventilate the whole thing.“ If the Republican will furnish us with the name of “the well-known and responsible party” behind whom they sneak we will fur- | nigh them with the name of a responsible party who will tell him to his face that he is a liar, As the Republican will not do anything of the kind, we will take the tronble to show the public how low down in mendacity the editor of the Republican has crawled in his attempt to protect tax-dodging. The assessment of the Post-Dispaton is not ess than $20,000,” but is exactly $53,490, this being the value put on the property by the assessors. The income of the Post-Drs- PATCH is pleasantly large, and we may add that it is steadily increasing. The Post-Dis- PATCH earns a larger income in a year from $53,490 worth of unmortgaged property than the Republican has earned in ten years from its bond-ridden possessions. The Post-Dispaton from the first day of its existence has urged the adoption of an income tax, and will continue to urge it. When the law taxes incomes the Post-D1s- PATCH will astonish and appall the impecuni- ous organ of the tax-dodgers. The allusion to the Dillon estate is a piece of personal malice which falls as far short of the mark as the allusion to the Post-Disparos, The property referred to is in the hands of a trustee; nearly all of it has been leased for more than twenty years at a fixed rent to the Wainwright Brewing Company, which has paid the taxes. No person connected with the Post-Dispatcu has any interest in the assessment nor any control over it. But even if there were one true statement in the whole tissue of lies, it would only amount to saying that because the as- sessor of St. Louis does not assess franchises or incomes, therefore the State Board of Equalization must not do its duty under the law and assess the property of the railroad corporations at its true value, We do not know whether the Republican enjoys the position in which it has placed itself, but we propose to keep it there. — ARISTOCRATIO MR. CADWALADER. The Philadelphia Kinsman of Mr. Bayard Who is to be Collector of the Port Philadelphia Correspondence of the World. Quaker City society isin ahigh state of jubila- tion over the prospective appointment of Mr. John Cadwalader as Collector of the Port of Philadel- phia. Mr. Caldwalader is known asthe leader of Philadelphia’s most exclusive set. He is a de- scendant of Robert II. of Scotland, and besides has the blood of two or three English monarchs flowing in his velus. He is also a near relative of Mr. Bayard, and to that fact his appointment, if made, will be largely due. On the point of birth he is considered here in Philadelphia to be just a peg beyond any other person in the Unitea states. g He gave a grand ball last winter in a hall owned by a British society, his house not being sufficiently large. A crowd of representatives of the bluest blood in the country danced in silks and jewols un- der a portrait of Queen Victoria. The presence of Britain's Queen in oils was distinctly apropos since all the company possessed English coats-of-arms, As the oceasion was the debut of Mr. Cadwalader's daughter in society, great care was taken to make the gathering as high in point of socia! prestige as possible. The company inciudei guests from New York, Rhode Island, Maryland, Virginia and Nerth Carolina. The New York people were connections of the Van Rensselaers and Livingstones. Mr. Cad- walader's set is of the opinion that the Astor circle, which appears to be considered respectabie enough in New York, is still of the nouveau riche. Mr. Bayard was unavoidably absent, but several of his relatives in part made up for the want of his presence. Mr. Cadwalader, although the representative of so much stal glory, ia hardly striking in persona) appearance, He is about five feet two inches in height, very slender and weighs probably one hun- dred and twelve pounds, His features are promi- nent for one so small in general mould, He keeps his fdce smooth shaven and is thought by some people to have @ resemblance to the first Napoleon. * 5 2 * a See - * Fgh > we. & 4 = To infer from conversations with him,he is inclined to that opinion himself. He is very wealthy, his estate being put down at 51.000. 000. He received a fortune from his uncle, Gen. George Cadwalader of the Mexican war. His father, the late Judge Cadwalader of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, also left him valuable property. The family has been known, as long as it has been at ali, for the tenacity of purpose with which it cleaves to public office, Mr. Cadwalader is a lawyer, though he confines his practice to looking after his own estate. He has: the old Philadelphia feeling of conservatism in financial matters and he | counts his pennies over several times before he lets them go. | His largest expenditures are for society purposes. He has been giving two or three big entertainments every season since his daughters have grown up. He places great store on his own personal grace, and though he is old enough to be a grandfather he still regularly takes dancing lessons and is perfect in all the latest steps. Not unnaturally, the prospective. appointment of Mr. Cadwalader has filled the common people“ as Mr. Cadwalader's set would day, with rage, and they are expressing themselves in unmistakable termswith respect to both Mr. Bayard and his aris- tocratic Philadelphia relative, Who He Is. From the New York World, The entire population turned out, the civic and military authorities received him, a royal salute was fired an three companies from two different regi- ments were detailed to escort him from the landing to the special train which conveyed him to London, where be was again received with similar demon- stration: of what over there is called loyalty.“ Now, who is this Major-General who is the recipi- ent of such extraordinary attentions? He is a young fellow of thirty-five, who, without ever hav- ing 8 an hour of active military service, isa Major-General over the heads of veterans whose faces arb furrowed with the scars from many a well-fought field—who draws pay and rations as a Major-General and besides takes $125,000 of the people’s money annually simply because he is one of the numerous children of the Queen, is called the Duke of Connaught, and is usually regarded as the donkey of his family. His first duty on his return was to hasten to Pots- dam to assist in burying Frederick Charles, his wife's tathe“, and at that funeral he paraded in the uniform of a General in the Prussian Army—which is well enough since it makes no difference what army he belongs to. But the sort of favorites who are thus pushed up in the world at the people's ex- pense is instanced in Connaught's wife's anxiety on her return to London to prosecute the papers that in their trenchant obituaries had characterized her dear old father as a drunken? licentious debauchee, who wes in achronic condition of delirium tremens, with frequent murderous ebullitions, during one of which he attempted to kill his wife.“ By and by the people all over Europe will begin to calmly consider if these Princes are worth what they cost. The First Lady. From the Philadelphia Times. Miss Cleveland has settled in a common sense, practical way the much discussed question of. who is the first lady in the land. Several days ago the necessity for some house-cleaning supervision hav- ing arisen, she routed her social opponents by ty- ing a towel around her head and in unpretentious dress personally directed the corps of servants as to the manner in which the work had to be done. It may be assumed that there will be some outcry by those who attempt to sway polite society against any such homely argument as this, but it is equally probable that the masses of the people will uphold Miss Cleveland for her unassuming conduct, The leading lady in the land ought to be able to lead in the matter of overseeing housework as well as in the more fashionable but less useful occupations of dancing a german or disseminating the latest society gossip. Somehow there is a streak of homely common sense running through the Cleveland family that stamps them as being very American in their ideas. Saved by Going to Bed. From the St. Joseph Gazette. The Gazette related the particulars yesterday of the miraculous escape from death of Mr. John Deshon and wife, a newly married couple, who re- side four miles southeast of this city on a farm. When the electric current commenced its grand pyrotechnic display Sunday afternoon, the young couple, whose residenve is on a high ridge, began to discuss the possibilities of the lightning striking. It appears that one or the other had heard that feathers were a non-conductor, and that the safest place on earth during a thunder storm wasina feather bed. A vote was taken on the subject and it was upanimously agreed that the bed was the proper place for them, soto bed they went. They had been there but a few seconds when the light- ning struck the house and tore the end of the build ing out in which their bed stood, Neither was in- jured, though both were slightly shocked. Why Colonels are scarce. From the Jefferson City State Journal. The rank of Colonel is not acquired anywhere on the face of the earth with so little exertion on the part of the applicant as here in Jefferson City, In St. Louis the applicant must acquire the title by the slow process of absorption —that is, he must associ- ate with Colonels for a number of years, learn their habits and try to look like them as much as possi- ble. Thisis very wearisome to impetuous young men, and when we come to consider the expenses incurred through setting up drinks’ and the long years of time wasted, itis not to be wondered at that St. Leuis has only twenty-five or thirty Colonels, | ——— Was It Switzler? From the Washington Herald. A good story is told of one of the recent Western appointees in the Treasury Department. He had only just been installed, when, happening into one pitcher. His own room was furnished with an or- dinary earthen pitcher andtumbler. The silver tray took his eye, and, returning to his room, he wrote a requisition for one upon the Secretary. The Secretary read the requisition and returned it with the verbal message: Tell Mr. —— that he had better get the prairie mud off of his boot heels before he sends to me for silver trays.” Captain Hugh Lewis’ Explanation, From the Alexandria (Va.) Gazette. Captain Hugh Lewis, whose recent reported re- _cantation of Democracy has given some emotional Republicans so much delight, has written a letter to his friends here, in which he says that the letter containing the recantation referred to was written by the Republican statistician of his State, aud that he (Lewis) signed uu when crazy drunk. He also says that he is as good a Democrat as he ever was, and certainly will not recant his Democracy as long as he holds his present position as an officer under the Democratic House of Representatives. Progress of the Negro Race. From the Sam Antonio (Tex.) Times, There are plenty of white as well as colored vagrants. On the whole, the progress of the negroes, as a race, is unmistakable. No one watches this progress with deeper interest or with more satisfaction than the Southera ‘people. The South wishes the colored people well, and is doing what it can to help them on te a higher plane in- tellectually, morally and politically. It Must Wort Both Ways. From the Boston Herald, - Meade, the instigator and defender of who will misuse his office for party advantage, as good rule must be made to work both ways. Lincoln for 1888. From the Meadville Tribune. Ifthe son of Abraham Lincoln lives, notwith- standing his reluctance to re-enter public life, he will be obliged torespond to the calls of his coun- try men, for unless we are greatly mistaken in the drift of current opinion he is already looked upon as the Moses to lead the Republican party from the wilderness of defeat to the triumphs of à great na- tional victory. — MEX OF MARK.

Hills, who ig the business manager of Miss Estelle Clayton, best known as Fayette, wears a genteal gold wateh chain across his sympathetic breast. It is a chain of the ordinary straight linked pattern. One end of the chain is caught in a small bar of gold in one of the Muttou holes of Mr. Hill's waistcoat, but the other end is lost to view in the lower right haad waistcoat pocket. There is that in the appearance of Mr. Hills, whose clothes are of the most approved the car being convene ientiy crowded, the thief had little difficuity in ob- taining ion of the chain without at/ract- ing the owner's attention. Experience had taught the thief that it is safer to worm the victim's watch quietly from its resting place than to endeavor to become possessed of it by a sudden snatch. therefore allowed his nimble fingers to creep the smooth links until they reached the vest pocket. Here he paused for amoment, Mr. Hills meantime complacently smoking his cigar—and then sofuy ust @ curious thumo and forefinger INTO THE TEMPTING POCKET. There was an instant of Lusty feeling around on the part of the thief, which was followed by an agonized howl. the hand the thief left the pocket more quickly than entered and cinging tenaciously to thumb and forefinger was not a watch, but thing dreadful soft and squirming. ‘The gers sprang back in dismay. Mr. Tus was the one who maintamed his equiliorum. “You better leave me my watch, said he to the p stricken thief,and the latter having shaken the curi- ous thing from his lnger hastily jumped from the car and disappeared. Mr. Hilis soothed the agita- * tion of tus creature which was left dangling at the @@ end of the chain, and after giving it a few reassur- ing pats, restored itto bis wais:coat pocket. To the startled passengers he subsequently explained that it was oniy his favorite pet squirre: Favette.“ Fora month or more Mr. Hills has carried tuis interesting pocket compauion about witn him, and says he wouldn't for tae worid be without it.

The Million Dollars Coined at the New Orleans Mint by Confederates, New Lokk. July 2.—A morning paper publishes a statement that over $1,000,000 have been coined at the New Orieans Mint. of which there is uo official record. The coinage act of 1873 made it the duty of the Director of the Mint to have a general super- vision of all the United States Mints and Assay Of- fices. The first director acting under that law was the Hon. H. R. Lyudeman, and iu his report of the subject he gives statistics of the coinage in the sev- eral mints, showing the total amounts and the de- nominations of money made at each place for each year of their existence. The New Orleans Mint was opened for business in 1838—subsequently money of every denomination was tnade there. The direct- or's statement is brought down to January 31, 186i, up to which time there bad been a total coinage of $40,148,740 in gold. and $29,764,358 in siver, making a grand total at the New Orleans Mint from its beginning in 1838 to January 81, 1861, in * s.iver and gold of 869.913.003. The date at which the directors’ report closes was the date at which the mint fell into the hands of the Confederates, Louisiana having seceded from the Union by an ordinance adopted in the State convention January 26, 1861, and the 20th of the same month all the Federal offices in the State, meluding the mint, were directed by an ordinance adopted that day, to be transferred to the custody of the State of Louisi- ana, and the 25th of March following tuey were ordered to be transferred to the care of th® Con- federate States. Documents iately brought to light, it is stated, show that subsequent to the mint going into the hands of the Louisianans and Con- federates, and up to may 80 of the same year, there were coined $254,000 in gold double eagles, aud $1,101,216 30 in silver half dollars, thas making a total coinage of $1.855,216 50 when the mint was in the enemy's hauds. What was done with this money does not appear from any avallable records, but the fact of the coinage, as stated, is suown on the boots of the coiner at that time, and in order to make up the true amount of the actual coinage of the New Orleans mint, this sum must be taken into account. There was no reguiag coinage of the precious metals in Confederate specie under Con- federate auspices, although the New Orleans mint remained in their control till April 26, 1864, When the city was taken by the Federal forces.

The Black Diamonds Lose the Best Game of the Season. — ⅛— Additional Facts in Regard to the Dunlap Fine—Louisville Wins An- other Game From the Browns—The : Yale Crew on Their Defeat—Cardiff Challenges Burke and Mitchell Sundry Sporting—Diamond Dust. 4 If any doubts existed in the minds of the Bt. Louis people about the ability of the St. Louis League club to play, they certainly have been dis- pelled by the St. Louis-Philadelphia series, which came to an end with yesterday's game, The last game, particularly, was a remarkably fine one and was not only the best one of the series, but was the finest game of ball played in St. Louis this season. For nine full innings not a single man on either side crossed the plate, though half a dozen different times there were two or three men on bases on either side. The game undoubtedly would have been a victory for St. Louis but for the fact of Daly’s unfortunate injury in the seventh, when de was struck in the stomach by a hard ball from Bovle’s bat, which necessitated the calling in of Ferguson, and the further fact that, as imthe two previous games, the St. Louis club had to play both the Philadelphia nine and the umpire. Fer- guson's decisions in yesterday's game were as rot- ten and faulty as apy that have been made here and it is a mighty good thing for the club that he does not umpire the Providence series. When Fer- guson was called in to pitch, the St. Louis club were hitting Daly freely, but the puzzling curves of the former were too much for the Black Diamonds, and though he pitched but three inuings, he struct out three men. Boyle pitehed a splendid game, and his support in the field was excellent. The game abounded in pretty plays, Caskins“ line catch, which be caught while lying on his side, and Dua- lap’s excellent running catch, which he caught when the ball was within an inch of the ground, being particularly noticeable. In the seventh Boyle hit a terrific liner straignt at Daily and the struck him squarely in the stomach. With charac- teristic base Tall grit he picked up the dall, how- ever, and threw to first, putting out Boyle, but the next instant he fell prone on his back and was writhing in ageny, In the tenth inning, after Manning fouled out to Baker, Andrews hit safe to left. Bastian then struck out, Andrews in the meantime stealing second, Fogarty then hit safe into left field, bringing Andrews home. In their half of the inning St. Louis failed to score, Glass- k. Duniap and McKiunon going out in one, two, th order after Baker had been given his base on The final score was: Philadelphia 1, St. ouis 0. Louisville Again Victorious, After their unlooked for success of Tuesday in de- feating the Browns at Louisville, the Louisvilles determined to duplicate their victory, and yester- day put in their best pitcher, the great and only Hecker. The result of the game verified their fond- est hopes, as the st. Louis club was unable to do anything with Hecker, but four scatter- ing hits being made off his delivery. Caruthers, too, was very effective, but though the Leuisvilles made only five hits, they succeeded in bunching them, whico won the game. Tue fielding of the St. Louis club was extremely excellent, but Nicol _and Robinson being cheered to the echo for remark- ably fine running catches. Maskrey, Miller and McLaughlin of the Louisvilles also made some splendid plays, intercepting seemingly safe hits. Louisville scored in the first, fourth aad eighth in- nings, while St. Louis was able to cross the plate but once inthe seventh. Comiskey and Browning each made two-baggers and Miller a three-bagger. Of St. Louis seven men were left on bases and of the Louisville two. Caruthers struck out 4 men and Hecker four, The final score was: Louisville 4, St, Louis 1. Other Games Yesterday. of the biggest slugeing matches of the sea- son Was the fourth gameof the Chicago-Boston geriet at Chicago. Clarkson and Whitney opposed each oiher inthe box and beth were hit harder than at any time during the season. Clarkson was pounded for fifteen safe hits with a totai of twenty- one bases, while Whitney was completely buried under twenty three safe hits with a total of forty- eight bases. Chicagos hard hitting was principaliy in the seventh, when a total ef twenty bases were secured by them. The batting was tne heaviest ever witnessed on the Chicago grounds and Burns hit probably the longest distance a ball was ever sent in Chicago, sending it to the farthest corner of the grounds, something over 500 feet. The fleiding of Chicago was 0? f close, while Boston made a number of wretched errors. Nearly every man on the Chicago nine made a two or three bagger. The final score of the game was: Chicago 24, Boston 10. The game at Detroit between the New York and Detroit clubs was very similarto the St. Louis. Boston game. ‘Ten innings were necessary to de- cide the contest, and but uine hits were made dur- ing the game. Weich pitch for New York and Weidman for Detroit, and, of the two, the former was the more effective, as he struck out nine men to Weidman’s three. The game was not won on hitting, however, but on errors of the Detroits, a wild throw by Crane inthe seventh and a wild throw by Weidman, each lettinginarun. Detroit scored but one run during the game, in the fourth, and the game resuited: New York 2, Detroit 1. The game at Buffaio between the Providence and Buffalo clubs was a very ciose and exciting one, and for seven innings Rhode Isiand’s pets were re- tired in one, two, three order by Galvin. Buffalo Wok very Kkindiy to the “wizzard,’’ Shaw. aad man in the club, except Carroll, succeeded in Making asafe hit, and the total of their hits was twelve. But six safe hits were made off Galvin, of which Carroll made three and Denny two. In the field both sides played an even game, each making os errors, which let in toree unearned runs. uffalo scored in tue third, fourtn and eightu innings, while Providence crossed the plate in toe first and last inn nes. Shaw struck out turee and Gaivin six, and tue final score ot the game was: b o 6, Providence 6. At Philadelphia the Metropolitans won a game fromthe Athietics, though the latter outbatted them. The Athietics made seventeen safe hits aad the Mets thirteen, and, though the -Philadeiphians made but five errors, eight of the Metropulitans’ runs were made onerrors. After the fifta inning Smith, the Athletics“ new pitcher, left tue fle Id. claiming O'Brien was not properly supporting him, and the latter also retired on account of iliness, A and Millan taking their places respective- ly at tue points. Tae Mets objected to the Change, and 1 the — under protest. In the fleld tue Mets played a splendid game and scored but two errors, but each let in a run. Ihe finai score of the game was; Mets 12, Athleties II, so the former will probably let their prutes. go, * At Pitisburg the American Association rivals for second piace again met yesterday, and, as on the ing oy: the Alieguenys came off victorious.

It didu't appear to be very rough, but you must remember that the wind coming up against those great, broad oars of ours impeded us considerably. “But was not Harvard suffering from the same disadvantage?” “No, not as much as our crew. You see, there are twenty-four more square inches of oar blade to every Yale man's oar than there is to the Harvard oar. Multiply that by eight and you have 192 more square inches of our blade exposed to the wind than there was in the Harvrad boat, Why. it acted just like a sail. But even in the absence of this disad vantage, we would uot have got nearer than twelve or thirteen lengths to the finish.” „How did Coxswain Caldwell do!“ „Oh, he steered a perfect course all the way, and kept shouting to us that we were right upon them. He did his work well.“ Did you pull the same stroke you pulled last year?” It struck me as being precisely the same.“ Have you read what Bob Cook has said about the crew?” es, and I have come to the conclusion that when he said it he must have been laboring under disappointment and excitement over the race. He never talked that way to us. He had confidence enough in us Saturday to go down to the Crocker House and bet $200 on Yale. Why, he told us yes- terday morning before we left the boathouse that we were going to win the racesure. It seems strange that he should talk the way he does, now that the race is over.“ Patsy Cardiff's Challenge, Patsy Cardiff appears anxious to have a set-to with either Charles Mitchell or James Burke as appears from the following challenge; To Charles Mitchell or James.Burke. .

Biggest Race in the World. Cola Stone left for Akron, Ohio, where he will take part in the extensive races of the local Bieycle Club, running in a quarter, half and mile contests. This will be simply a stopping place for him and a good practice ground against his participation in the 100-mile road race from Cobourg to Kingston, Can- ada, which will be the culmination of the big Four tour so far as interest in racing is con. cerned, The entire cycling world on this side of the water is agg over the expected results of the race which wil) be without question the greatest contest ever made by wheelmen in the world. Nearly ey- ery large city will nave a representative in the match, and thirteen entries are so far recorded including such riders as Hendee, Whit- aker, Corey, Weber, Van Sickien and Cola Stone. A private letter to Secretary Stewart of the Ramblers from a St. Louis man iu the Chicago division of the Big Four, en route to Buffalo, says that Stone is not considered as liable to get either firet, second or third place, and the Chicago men are reported as laying oddson Van Sicklen as against Stone, in spite of the fact that Cola has beaten Van in every contest they ever ran in together, The hundred miles from Cobourg to Kingston are the smoothest and hardest stretch of road in America, and bets are being made in this city that the distance will be covered in less than seven hours. There is so much rivalry between the individual riders and so much feeling against the Star wheel, that the race will be run with extreme bitterness. So close is the finish expected to be that a cord will be stretched across the finishing line at Kingston to avoid any disputes. The St. Louis ‘cyclists are confident that Stone's records here as a road rider will carry him in first, and should he win the contest against America's fastest men, it will be the great- est stimulus St. Louis wheeling has ever received.

Yesterday's Post-Dispaton stated that Umpire Ferguson did not fine Duniap in the game on Tues- day, and this statement both the morning papers contradict and one states that Ferguson in an inter- view admitted that he had fined Dunlap. This is all richt sofaras it goes, and Dunlap may have been fined by Ferguson after the la tter reached his hotel, but on the field Dunlap was not fined. In support of this statement Briody, McKinnon and Daily are willing to make sworn affidavits to the fact that Ferguson said, “Play bail. I'll fine you $50 right now if you dont. This is also corroborrated by the Philadelphia player who was at the bat, as he turned to Briody said, ‘‘Duniap better look out or he'll get it. It’s a wonder he didn't get it then.” But the best roof of the fact that Duniap was notfined is that ö — did not give the becessary notice. Sec- tion five of rule sixty-eight of the League's _play- rules, under the head of “The Umpire,“ says, “The umpire shall at once notify the captain of the offending player's side of the infliction of any fine herein provided for, and the club to which such player belongs shail, upon the receipt of a notice of said fine from the Secretary of the League, within teu days transmit the amount of such fine to the Secretary of the League.” This,Umpire Ferguson failed to do, and he «new full well when he told the reporter ofa morning paper: that ne fined Dunlap, that he was giving him “taffy. Then again he had no right to fine Duniap. Rule sixty-three says: No player except the captain or his assistant suall address the umpire conceraing any point of play, aud any violation of this rule shall subject the offender to a fine of five dollars by the umpire.” Tue whole thing as it occurred is as follows; When Fogarty ran to second Duulap put him out fairly and squarely, but Ferguson said: “Not out.’ Then Glasscock called out: “Why, he touched him with the ball, Bob,” and in the same breath Dunlap said, looking towards the umpire; “What's that?’ ‘then ferguson made use of the language as stated elsewhere. Now, the rules are very plain in regard to this matter, aud Dunlap bad a perfect rigut to address the uinpire without being fined. The truthof the matter 1s, Ferguson has no use for Dunlap, aud, if the truth were known, is try- in to have him “fired™ from the club. Another thing is, if he did fine Duulap (after the game), as he states, he musi notify the secretary of the League within twenty-four hours, and if he fails to doso heforfeits his position, and he can rest assured St. Louis parties will keep posted on this point.

Captain Snyder fined Long John Reilly $10 Satur- day for being honest and telling McLean he had not been hit by a pitched ball when the umpire told him to take his base.

Von der Ahe has a great utility man in Robinson, who is now playiug O’ Neil's position in I ft fieid. He can piten, catch, play second or twird base or short- stop, or in the outfield.

The reporter, on entering, addressed himself to Mr. Noble, and the latter answered the first question very prompt- ly by saying: “Ihave worked ten years to win the Gas Licht Company a million of dollars, and I expect to be paid for my services," Ho will you proceed to get your money?” “Well, I can’t choke it outof them. There are too many directors to think of choking them all, so I guess I'll have to sue. I have won a great deal of money for the Gas Company, in my time, and I guess I won't find it impossible to win a little for myself.“ “You expect to make them pay, then?” “Of course Ido. I belong toa profession that has the reputation of doing anything for We generally services, and 1 just or my services. Five of these ten years were active ser- vice, and what I ask in return is not so very much. For Messrs. Glover & Shepley who died in the service of the company I want five per cent of the amount coilected, and myself aud Mr. Orrick five per cent. Why, Ilsaved the Gas mpany more than the amount of my fee in the „ they wanted to throw away because they thought it was subject to the consumers’ tax. r. Newman and the directors wanted to remit this amount fromtheir claim lest it might stand in the way of a judgment or afford a pretext for carrying tue case into the Supreme Court; but I wrote them @ stroug letter setting forth the points of the law on the subject, and the $63, was saved and they've got it in their pockets now with the rest of the money, I presume the money has been paid, hasn't it?” 2 to Mr. Orrick who returned an affirmative n One thing I desire to say,“ Mr. Noble continued, “is that the story that I have interposed any objec- tion to the pay ment of this money to the directors, or thai I desired to prevent the payment, is a fiction made out of whole cloth. Ihe fact is directly contrary to this, and before I left I hada thorough understanding with Mr. Glover and the other coun- sel to the effect that no opposition would be offered tothe payment. My desire was to have the gas company get their money and then come forward dike gentlemen and pay me for my work. Was there any agreement between you?” Noue except the understanding that always ap- plies in such cases, that a fair remuneration follows successful effort. I made outa statement of our c.aims and presented it taree or four months ago. Aftersome dilly-daliying and dickering the directors rejected my claim. Then Mr. Newman got me to return the claim, saying he thougit be could do something with it; there was more dilly dally mg and dick , but nothing came of it.“ “You didn’t expect this trouble about collecting your fee, did your” Oh, 1 didn’t imagine that I would get it without some troubie. They never paid me a fee yet with- out duly-dallying and dic«ering about it, but I always got my money. I have to do as much arguing with the Gas Company to get my fees as | have had to do in eoqurt to win their suits, but I won for them every time, and I have not yet forgot bow to win lawsuits, so I don't staud a bad chance of winning this time for + * Oh. l'un get my money.
